Product review: Woolite Sample and Share


One of my biggest pet peeves is when I pull out my favorite outfit only to realize that one of both the pieces are have been worn out or faded  due continual washes.  So when I heard about the Crowdtap Sample and Share for Woolite, I jumped at the chance to host a sample and share so I could see of the product could deliver on its promise to help “Clothes look like new, longer.”  With this challenge  I was provided with 10 Woolite samples, one for myself and 9 to share with my friends.  Right before I received my sample of Woolite, I purchased a new pair of dark denim jeans which I just loved.  Once I was accepted for the sample and share I thought what better way to test out my Woolite than with my new jeans because as you all know, nothing fades quicker than dark denim when not washed properly.  Now I must admit that I am pretty simple when it comes to washing so when I saw that using Woolite would not require me to make any major changes to my normal routine I was happy.  One of the cool things about using Woolite is that it is a product that works great even in cold water so I can continue my efforts to conserve energy without sacrificing the quality of the product.  Upon opening the packet, I found the product to have a subtle yet clean smell to it. I have two young children so I felt relieved that the Woolite did not have a strong perfume smell and it was clear with no heavy dyes. I also liked the fact that the detergent was not as thick and heavy as some other detergents are, yet it produced a generous lather once the wash cycle started. Once the clothes were dry, the nice clean smell was still there and there were no signs of any fading or stretching.  Another great thing that I noticed was that the clothes had a soft feel to them and lacked the residue feel that some other products leave behind.  I decided to also try Woolite on my linens and I got the same great results.  Overall I was impressed with my initial use of the product but I am heading to the store to pick up a bottle of Woolite to see if it will help my jeans maintain their color for the long haul.  I noticed that there is a specially formulated Woolite for dark clothes so I will try this product out for my favorite jean.  If you are interested in trying this great product but are concerned about how much a product like this will cost, rest assured that it is reasonably priced especially considering how much you can stand to save on clothing. I was recently in Target and noticed that they had several sizes on sale so if you are interested in Woolite, be sure to check them out.       http://www.woolite.us/

Product Review: Old Navy Tees for Crowdtap Sample and Share

Anyone who knows me knows that I am always in search of a great deal or freebie. Well over the past couple of months I have been participating with an online program with a company called Crowdtap which partners with great companies to help promote their products with consumers who agree to review and spread the word about the products. Since I have been staying home, I have had the opportunity to participate in some great Sample and Share projects. My latest sample was with Old Navy and it allowed me and a friend to pick out two of their new perfect tees at our local Old Navy store.  First off I would like to thank you Crowd tap and Old Navy for an absolutely great time trying out these great tees. I had so much fun going to the store and searching for the perfect tee and boy did I find two great ones. As a mother of two very active and involved young girls it is so important for me to be able to dress not only comfortably but also stylish. These tees allow me to do both and I love them. I found the shopping experiences to be so much fun and I am sure the people in the store thought I was crazy for being so excited because I was like a kid in a candy store.  I had a ball going through the different styles and colors and I was able to take lots of pictures.  I loved all of the color choices and I felt that there were colors that would work for everyone. I think that the styles of the shirts are also great because the styles available would work with if different body types. I know for me they worked well because I have picked up some weight over the past couple of months and I found that these two tees helped to hide some of my unflattering spots. I am a somewhat of an indecisive person so I had a hard time choosing just two but I finally ended up choosing a charcoal grey vintage tee and a grape colored Henley Perfect tee. Once I got my tees home I started coming up with different ways to wear my tees. I find that they are great to lounge around the house in but they are also just as great dressed up for a night out on the town with my husband. I have worn my Charcoal grey shirt with a nice pair of colored skinny jeans for a nice outfit to where to a kid’s party. I have also worn them with basic jeans, but taken to the next level with a nice pair of pumps, and a nice long necklace that goes well with the V neck of the Vintage tee. With a simple change of accessories, I can take the tee from day to night with great ease.  This was my first sample share and I have been telling anyone who will listen to me about Old Navy and these great Tees. I LOVE these tees because as a savvy saver I am always looking for affordable, versatile pieces that can be worn several ways.  I think that these tees are a must have for every woman’s spring/summer wardrobe.
